Review: Playing with the Prop by Mina Carter

Never mix business with pleasure…

A physical therapist for successful Rugby team, the Strathstow Sharks, Ashley’s golden rule is never to mix business and pleasure. She loves her job and the guys she looks after, and doesn’t want to jeopardise her place with the team. As nicely put together as her charges are, she’s never found herself remotely tempted.

Until now.

Harry James, the team’s newest prop gives her butterflies in her stomach every time she has to treat him, and her fantasies involving his hard, muscled body and sinful lips keep her hot and bothered at night. Luckily, he shows no sign of having noticed her attraction, and hasn’t shown any interest in her…

She’s been his from the moment he saw her…

Harry James marked the pretty little physio the first day they met. For the last year he’s been biding his time, and trying to get her attention. So much so, it’s gained him a few nicknames in the squad. Not that anyone would dare tell her.

When the Sharks win big on Harry’s birthday, can he stop at claiming a birthday kiss, or will he want everything she has to give?

Reviewer’s Thoughts

Harry has been faking injuries so that Ashley can put her hands on him. Harry has had a thing for Ashley ever since he first saw her when he joined the Strathstow Sharks. Harry has been dragging his feet to ask her out and finally makes a move while Ashley is massaging his “leg cramp.” Harry wants a kiss from Ashley if they win the game.

Ashley is shocked. She has dreamed of being with Harry since he first came to the team and now has the opportunity to kiss him, hopefully a lot! As Ashley and Harry dance at Harry’s birthday party later that evening, sparks ignite a fiery passion that neither one can deny. The couple escape to Harry’s flat and spend a night of ecstasy together followed by Ashley slinking away the next morning.

Ashley is kicking herself for leaving the way she did and doesn’t know how to act when she shows up for work at the team’s practice a few days later. When Ashley hears some of the team talking about her and Harry’s time together, she is furious. Did Harry spill the beans about their hot night or is a jaded party spreading rumors to have Ashley for himself?

I really enjoyed the read and was so happy that Tom, from Hitting on the Hooker, and Will, from Seduced by the Scrum-Half, played roles in the story. These books are great for anyone who needs a quick, sexy read. If not for the story, purchase the books for the sexy covers!
